Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "portveil": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

      "env": {
        "PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID": "your-value",
        "PORTVEIL_TOKEN": "your-value",
        "PORTVEIL_API": "your-value"

}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add portveil --env PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID=your-value --env PORTVEIL_TOKEN=your-value --env PORTVEIL_API=your-value -- npx -y portveil-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {

        "PORTVEIL_API": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "portveil": {

      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "portveil-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {

        "PORTVEIL_TOKEN": "your-value",
        "PORTVEIL_API": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Portveil safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID, PORTVEIL_TOKEN

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.4.4) reached the registry 12 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Portveil MCP server

Let an AI assistant see the devices on your Portveil account and move them between VPN locations.

"Move my scraper box to Finland."

"Rotate every agent to a new location."

"Which of my devices aren't protected right now?"

"Rotate the scraper between the US and Finland every 15 minutes."

Moves are verified: a tool only reports success after the device has switched and the exit server in the new location confirms it sees that device.

Tools

Tool	What it does	Needs
`list_devices`	Every device: protected or not, where it exits, live speed (↓/↑ Mbps), remote control on/off	read
`list_locations`	The locations you can move to	read
`get_device`	One device's current state, including live speed and any rotation	read
`get_account`	Plan and devices used	read
`list_activity`	Recent moves, reconnects and changes, and which token made them	read
`move_device`	Move a device to a country or city ("Finland", "US", "Helsinki")	control
`rotate_device`	Move a device once to the next location	control
`start_rotation`	Move a device automatically every N minutes (5–10080), optionally among chosen locations. Portveil runs the schedule, so the assistant can close	control
`stop_rotation`	Turn scheduled rotation off	control
`reconnect_device`	Re-establish a device's tunnel	control
`disconnect_device`	Turn a device's VPN off (flagged destructive: a hint that tells well-behaved assistants to check with you first)	control
`add_device`	Add a device. Phones and laptops (WireGuard app): creates it and saves its tunnel files locally, key never shown in chat. Linux servers and agent machines: gives the exact commands to run on that machine, which makes its own key and registers itself	admin (phones/laptops)
`update_device`	Rename a device and/or turn its remote control on or off	admin
`remove_device`	Remove a device for good (flagged destructive)	admin

Tool names changed in 0.3.0 to one verb_noun pattern: device_status → get_device, account_info → get_account, recent_activity → list_activity, set_rotation → start_rotation.

Devices can be named loosely ("scraper" finds "Scraper box"); an ambiguous name returns the choices instead of guessing.

Setup

No account yet? Start free with just an email, no card.

In the Portveil dashboard, create an API token. Choose control scope to let the assistant move devices, or read to let it only look. Don't give it your account key.
Note your account ID (acct_…).
Add the server to your assistant:

Claude Code

claude mcp add portveil -e PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID=acct_… -e PORTVEIL_TOKEN=clt_… -- npx -y portveil-mcp

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json) and most other clients:

"mcpServers": { "portveil": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "portveil-mcp"], "env": { "PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID": "acct_…", "PORTVEIL_TOKEN": "clt_…" } } } }

Hermes Agent: Hermes only installs npm packages older than 14 days, so install into its own folder and run it with node:

cd ~ && npm install --prefix ~/.hermes/mcp-servers/portveil portveil-mcp@0.4.3

echo 'PORTVEIL_TOKEN=clt_…' >> ~/.hermes/.env hermes mcp add portveil --command node \ --env PORTVEIL_ACCOUNT_ID=acct_… 'PORTVEIL_TOKEN=${PORTVEIL_TOKEN}' \ --args ~/.hermes/mcp-servers/portveil/node_modules/portveil-mcp/dist/index.js

For Hermes to use it well (when to act, what to confirm first, how to add devices), also install the Portveil skill from [ClawHub](https://clawhub.ai/roybogs/portveil):

hermes skills install roybogs/portveil

(Source: skills/portveil/SKILL.md.)

Devices must be running the Portveil app or the Portveil agent with remote control on. Devices using the plain WireGuard app are shown but can't be moved.

Security

Use a scoped API token. Every action it takes is recorded in your account's activity log with the token that made it, and you can revoke it in the dashboard at any time.
The server talks only to https://api.portveil.com (override with PORTVEIL_API). It stores nothing.

Development

npm install

npm test # builds, then runs the tests against a fake Portveil API
